Sticking with the brethren tonight
Pucker up with a citrus and sea salt gose...

I'm having this Dutch IPA which is just OK. Nothing terribly interesting or outstanding here.

Earl Grey Cyder

Would you share the recipe? Apples should be ripe in a month or so, would be nice to try a few variations.

Sweet stout 6% last beer from @Hazelwood Brewery . I have to say I usually steer clear of anything that has sweet or pastry in the description, I like sweet stuff but not in beer. This beer is not to sweet started with a thick tanned head but disappeared quickly. Chocolate/coffee aroma and in the flavour too. Nice beer. Cheers

I had that myself. Ok is the perfect description. Not bad not really good but perfectly drinkable

 

[samale]

I am sampling one of everything I have. Still not impressed with the hop flavour of hazy IPA.
Currently on my Saison

I anticipate a hangover.

So far tonight: vodka and lemonade (a couple), Raspberry cider (two or three) and a G&T (all homemade but if Chippy asks by homemade I mean I put the lemonade in the vodka and the tonic in the gin )

Mosaic/Simcoe pale next at 6.8%.

Really smooth - but I’m eating Monster Munch so that’s as far as any description is going!

(the head settled after a minute or so!)

You uncultured swine, everyone knows you pair a dark beer with monster munch.

Well that all depends if it's pickled onion or beef

It is beef so I think @strange-steve is right!

 

[Fuzzy Growler]

It's very simple and practically full proof. As a rule of thumb, for practically every style, just dissolve 2/3 cup of table sugar and add to the batch (for approx 20L batch). Stir in and bottle. Done! Never had any issues. Don't overthink it, 2/3 cup will be grand.

Awesome cheers dude I'll give this a try on my next batch

On my Munich dunkel now, this beer is starting to really come good.

Pickled onion?

Finishing the night with my last bottle of Dubbel

. First time I have brewed a Dubbel and I have been pleased with it but some tweaking needs to be done for the next batch..

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Pickled onion?

No sorry, let you down.

 

[Tanglefoot]

Had to leave our holiday bolt hole on the Lizard and venture into Falmouth today, so made a quick pitstop at the Verdant seafood bar to pick up a few cans.
This Pale Ale ( 300 Laps Of Your Garden) went down well with the Bass I caught yesterday which we ate this evening.

Ahhh, just noticed you said beef..beef monster munch I think are the only beef flavoured crisps I like..

 

[DavidDetroit]

it says use 2 per 500ml Bottle. I was using 1 drop of the Cooper's brand

Over a month or two, if you keep the room toasty, it may well be at the lower end of acceptable. I just dropped a batch I make a lot from one cup of sugar to 3/4 C and there's a bigger delay in carbonation. Good luck though.

If things ever settle down and you find yourself on the west side of Michigan--it's quite nice by the lake, by the way, try a four-pack of this beer. Bourbon barrel-aged stout called Dragon's Milk

.

I mentioned last time that it's at Costco's and cheaper than in the regular stores. This is from the newest pallet they brought in. I have to say, I was really pleased that New Holland Brewing made a deal with them to sell their product. There's fourteen stores in Michigan? That's a lot of beer being sold! The purchaser for Costco gets two thumbs up.
